My issue with the kits is that I do not know which tool I should use: WeiDU or the TeamBG set. So far I have been unable to determine which one would allow me to implement my changes with the least amount of fuss.

I hav enot used WeiDU before, but I find the TeamBG-set very puzzling and hard to understand. Go with WeiDU.

I can change in-party NPC's characteristics easily enough using ShadowKeeper, but how do I manipulate an NPC so that they come into my party with the better portrait, etc.?

Open SK, and go to the creature-browser (CB). Select the NPC you want to edit, and click 'Edit'. Then it can easily be done. There are ususally more then one files of each NPC, but it should do to only edit the first one.
