I advise you to go iksar while you still have a chance, to be honest that faction stuff isn't all that important. Its fairly easy to just make a mule wherever you want to shop.
Iksars get a very nice regeneration bonus that you will for sure be missing at the higher levels when lich starts hurting. I picked human since I knew nothing about EQ when i made the char and I regret not having made an iksar every day... at 60 its far too late to change though!
