Regarding low-level money camps, I would argue that since you can make a lot more money per hour once you're level 50+ and the low-level camps may be hard to get to, hard to bank from, and/or highly competitive, it may be a better idea to just focus on leveling in convenient, low-demand places where you will EXP faster, and then get money when you're high-level, especially considering that necromancers are not gear-dependent. The only (relatively affordable) item that would be a great benefit to you is the journeyman's boots, which sell for about 5k in EC, so it would make some sense to try and save up for those, or to farm them yourself. If you do want to make 5k in a reasonable time, you may indeed try the money camps suggested above, but it may be less of a hassle (though still a considerable one) to farm them yourself once you're high level enough (I think you can do it at around level 35?).

Also, as an Iksar, you're not just an 'evil race', because even the evil races of Norrath will hate you. You're your own separate category. You can easily level near Cabilis, though, if you don't care too much about getting a lot of money early on. Field of Bone is great from level 1 to level 18 or so - you can also pop your head into Kurn's Tower at around level 10 or 12 and see if you can solo there (you get more EXP per kill in dungeons). Then you can head to Lake of Ill Omen, and a few levels later you can try the forest giant village in Warsliks Woods, which is an OK money spot, though it's sometimes overcamped. Once you hit 30 or so, you can do the mountain giant fort in Frontier Mountains - this is a popular spot (again, because of decent money drops) but has a lot of mountain giants, so you can generally find monsters to kill whenever.

The benefit of these zones is that Cabilis is a short run away for banking and selling, and you won't have to worry about traveling between Kunark and the old world whenever you need to buy new spells.
