This has been at my house for the past 7 years but it has been moved to 3 locations in its life. I’m assuming this is a death bloom but I don’t know much about succulents so any info helps!

Terminal inflorescence, or a “death bloom”, are what flowers on a Monocarpic plant are called. Most Succulent plants are not monocarpic. The most common monocarpic genera are Sempervivum, Aeonium, and many Agave. It refers to the rosette or head that goes to flower dying after the flower is done. Most Monocarpic plants offset before the individual plant is done. If your plant is not one of those genera, then you’re likely in luck and not in the presence of a “death bloom”

Yes
This looks like an echeveria agavoides to me. It’s not dying but is instead severely light deprived. It needs full direct sun to thrive and does not do well in low light conditions. Please move it somewhere where it will get more light
No. Just wants more light. And probably less water
Yes, this is a !Sempervivum. Specifically, it looks like a hybrid Sempervivum tectorum from the Northern Lights collection popular at many nurseries.
Yep.
not a death bloom that’s a thing only agave do
是花
Yes but let it flower and let the flowers wilt/die and next year a bunch of babies will come up.
Yes that is a terminal inflorescence.
Terminal inflorescence push-up from the center and pull it up like this.
Non-terminal inflorescence come out from the side on thin stalks.
