Matthias gets about twenty away from the seepage and summons a large stone wall. Pulling a lump of clay out he shapes it roughly into the shape of a bridge and touches it to the wall, which molds itself to the clay.
"How about a bridge? It's crude, but less a waste of magic." Matthias says crushing and shaping the clay in his hands.
((Cast wall of stone and then greater stone shape))

(Gargoyles would be a better choice; medium half-dragons have no wings)
The stone bridge makes it across most of the seepage, but about 40 feet of it remains ahead. However, your target is only 20 feet in, already up to her chin in the stuff.
Be warned; touching her will cause contact with the seepage.
Also, in front of your target stands a semi-humanoid construct, covered head to toe in sharp spikes and armed with two spinning blades in place of its hands. It makes no movement towards you, but twitches in agitation the nearer you draw to the oracle. Unfortunately, it is not affected by the seepage.
The oracle, struggling against the seepage, cries out,
"For God's sake... please... help me..."

{So are we gargoyles or not?}

Anatarei Crimsonthrone Jacior Matthias gets about twenty away from the seepage and summons a large stone wall. Pulling a lump of clay out he shapes it roughly into the shape of a bridge and touches it to the wall, which molds itself to the clay. "How about a bridge? It's crude, but less a waste of magic."

Half-dragon would be a waste of time, since you couldn't use the breath weapons and your claws deal the exact same damage.

{Half-dragon gargoyles would be stronger, which would allow the characters in full-plate to still fly. Honestly, I'm trying for the strongest humanoid flyers I can polymorph folks into. All the ones that come to mind are not available to use, since they're outsiders.}

Matthias stared at the golem, trying to think of where he had seen it before.

Delan, you identify the construct as a Blade Guardian, a constructed familiar built to better serve a spellcaster.

{So, Misery and Halen are totally trying to get to the oracle and help her. However, I'm still kind of clueless on whether they can. If the bridge is long enough, they're there. If it's not and they're only regular gargoyles, they can't because they're both wearing too much armor for a gargoyle's strength. If they're half-dragon gargoyles, then they're golden. So where do we stand?}

(In order:
Yes, Complete Warrior. Half-dragon gargoyles are fine. Bridge was made.)

{Alright, then. Anyone who is willing - my tapestry affects 9 people and myself, and there aren't that many of us here - you'll be polymorphed into a half-dragon Gargoyle, getting: STR 23, DEX 16, CON 20, Natural Armor of +8, 2 medium claw attacks, 1 medium bite attack, and a fly speed of 60' with average maneuverability. This should allow us to actually reach the oracle, and we can all fly. Now, touching the oracle gets the necrocrap on us, too, right? Any way to actually get it off?"}  Rage takes a moment to cast swift expeditious retreat to increase his speed, and then launches himself forward towards the oracle. Whatever this ooze may or may not be, he had little expectation that it would cause his unliving form any real difficulty. The other construct that was standing in the way would just have to be dealt with after she was rescued. Rage would grab the girl and get her out in short order, and then they'd at least be done here.  Oulviina casts Black Tentacles to grapple the construct, hoping to prevent it from attacking everyone as they rescue the oracle.

Passing the fortitude save keeps it off of you, or allows you to break free. Pulling the oracle out could be done telekinetically.
Rage, the construct lurches towards you only to be snared by the tentacles. It is not bothered by the seepage as the seepage does not affect objects, and it has construct traits.
