Marika keeps a journal, though she nowadays writes infrequently to it. Her most secret thought is that she felt both heart-breaking grief and relief when her brother - a soldier who had been turned into Death Knight during the Northrend campaign - fell in the siege of Lordaeron.

Merces writes to his journal daily. His secret are the descriptions of fortresses amidst the sea of clouds and other vague memories of a world that is not Azeroth - and the concern that those vague memories, which grow fainter every day, are in fact nothing but delusions and he doesn’t truly know who he is.

Chasim doesn’t keep a journal, though he has sometimes joked that he could write a memoir after he is retired. The thought he would be most hard-pressed to reveal is that sometimes his old injuries do in fact ache and that there are days when even him struggles to keep smiling.

Aenor sometimes writes journal entries in his notebook, but his more secret thoughts are kept in a separate journal. He has wondered if his life would have been better if had been able to “defect” and join the high elves after the fall of Quel’thalas.

Viridiel most likely doesn’t keep a journal, but if he did, only the journal would know how fear still grips his heart every time death comes close and how he still hasn’t grown completely numb about the sight of corpses; something only alcohol seems to provide a respite from.

(Sorry that this took a while! Since I couldn’t decide a character, have a bunch of facts for different characters:)

Marika sort of sympathizes with the Scarlet Crusade. Though their methods were too aggressive and they discriminated against almost everyone, her hatred of undead is strong enough that part of her respects the Crusade’s aim to destroy them with almost any means available.

Merces likes to study gadgets and other mechanical things by disassembling them, examining the parts and then figuring out how they work. Unfortunately, he isn’t yet as skilled at putting things back together… though thankfully he at least never disassembles anything he hasn’t bought with his own money.

Chasim likes to go fishing, and he doesn’t really care what he catches. A nice fish? Great, now he can make fish soup for dinner! An old boot? Oh cool, that’s funny!

Eodain is afraid of fire. He can tolerate the sight of it, but he won’t e.g. sit in the seat nearest to a fireplace nor carry a torch if he can avoid it. The story involved in the explanation involves a treasure hunt, a trap floor and one Dwarf (who is both his friend of sorts and the person whom annoys him the most).

Viridiel is relatively good at languages and can speak Orcish pretty much without a foreign accent. He’d probably learn other languages quickly as well - if he bothered to study them.
