1. I think the guy is looking for Salamander Dust. There's no importance to this, it's just a little humorous fun on the side. And his changing clothing colors has no importance either. Lots of characters change their clothes in if you start a different game. The Dwarf outside the Mart for example, and more.
2. I don't know. Maybe she's Ribald's familiar, or that scroll-selling woman's. There's no significance or interaction with you as the Player Character at any rate.
