Interesting. So I could turn into plutonium or something and blow myself up? :P
Plutonium doesn't blow itself up. 🤪
Furthermore, there's no mention of retaining sentience once you're a mineral.
Once plutonium reaches critical mass it automatically explodes.
Your average full grown adult is well more than critical mass.
It explodes yeah but it's more like a radioactive flashbang than a nuclear bomb, there's a great video online explaining how they had to coordinate chemical explosives and concave lenses to properly aggravate the uranium.
Fair, though that particular shapechanging option has a deadline of ~24,000 years, so they'd better hop to it.
