As far as my high chaos Corvo, here's the little headcannon I like to think of high chaos Corvo.

Corvo was just a protective body guard and Jessamine's lover. Watching Jessamine get stabbed by Daud broke something in him and be accused of her brutal murder sent him over the edge. He vowed vengeance against Hiram and his allies and would slaughter anyone in his way to exact his revenge. As he killed more and more people, his thirst for blood became unquenchable and soon began murdering anyone, even innocent bystanders. Upon recovering Emily, Corvo temporarily gained a conscious that quickly vanished upon slaying more people. He started becoming deranged and insane. This murderous insanity made him stop carrying for Emily and just wanted to satisfy his thirst for killing. After killing Hiram, Corvo thought he could return to normal and maybe start again with a clean slate but once he was poisoned by his former allies, his violent rampage was rebooted. Upon fighting Daud, Corvo put him down like an animal and for the first time, he felt a bit of relief. Upon reaching the light house, Samuel tried to warm the guards that Covo was there to which Corvo would just kill him with a simple shot from his crossbow to Samuel's head. He killed Martin before he could shot himself and shot down Pendleton while he was bleeding out and finally, when he confronted Havelock, he fought with him and once again killed another man who betrayed him forgetting about Emily and letting her plunge to her death. Emily's death broke Corvo down and he became depressed. Leaving his mask on sword on Emily's grave, Corvo sailed away from Dunwall hoping to never remember that place anymore.

Put simply: Corvo was a normal bodyguard to the Empress who protected her to the best of his abilities and loved her but when she was killed and framed with her death, Corvo lost sight of who he truly was and slaughtered who ever stepped in his direction.
