Probably should go join the Thousand ~~Suns~~ Sons. They might set you up with some nice power armor.

Why would it matter if it says you die? It's not like there's a rule that dead characters can't take actions. Or that they transform into objects. Or get sent to another plane of existence depending on who they worship and their alignment while leaving an object behind.

In this case it could result in a poltergeist, which uses the dust to interact with things.

I would argue that by this logic, your ability scores also fall to 0, killing you

Well memed, but it's no fun to try to argue with someone who will take everything in bad faith, even as a joke.

I’m just going to swing for the fences with the always objectionable, “fiction trumps rules.”
