Like Liadan mentioned, a lot of this depends on where your character is from or where they're living now that determines what lore would more heavily apply to them. A Highlander who comes from the Far East will be different from one from Ala Mhigo versus another who may have lived in Coerthas their whole life as a shepherd.
In any case here's a couple links you might find helpful! The first is a compilation of all Highlander lore in the game and lore book, and the second is a summary of most lore pertaining to the various races of the game and their interactions between each other. If you have more questions feel free to ask them! ^^ Hope this helps!
