Cas' section is a slightly more fleshed out, and stitched together history that is shown in various sources. It mentions the dragon thing, but uses her voice to downplay it as much as possible. Basically by the time of the Inquisition it had mostly been forgotten and what little hadn't had been exaggerated. Seems like Bioware were trying to distance themselves from Dawn of the Seeker.
One interesting note, Cas went to the Seekers at 12 - older than most - but went through her Vigil at 15, the youngest to do so in centuries.
Cullen's section details his history before, between and after the first two games, with a little bit before Inquisition. It's variously adorablele, but I decided to include the following passage as the best exemplar.
“Cullen was eight years old when he told his brother and sisters that he would become a templar. Following this announcement, his youngest sister proclaimed that she would be ' princess - no, a cat!' and his brother attempted to tackle 'Sir Cullen' into the lake”
Blackwall's section is five paragraphs about the real Blackwall. One interesting thing is it notes that he was awarded "The Silverite Wings of Valor" - if this is some sort of Warden award, it's the first time we've heard of them having anything like that.
Viv. Youngest mage in history to go through the harrowing. Lust Love at first sight with the Duke. Had a bunch of bards sent after her, half were returned frozen solid, the other half were persuaded to work for her. Honestly there's nothing really interesting here, it's mostly "got something there for Viv? Yep, check, move onto the next thing."
Sera. Some stuff about the Friends of Red Jenny. They used to be a gang of assassins, local to Denerim, bloody and in the habit of recruiting street urchins for various tasks. There is some indication that before the gang the name existed as a rank of some other organisation
