We don't know, and I thought we were leavng the Foodman open as a PC opportunity?
Maybe one of those cases of providing an NPC stadn-in if no PC wants it.

Again, providing the NPC in case they don't want it.

Those antipathies aren't definite until much later. Attitudes *change*. Remmeber, Kallyr and Broyan will be fighting alongside Harrek in a few years time: yet it's Harrek who kills her, eventually.
And if THE Maniskisson is a PC, the whole thing will play out according to their game, not according to our reading of KoS. Maybe they get on fine. Maybe Kallyr ends up as part of his (or her??) ring. Anything can happen once you let players take control. That's what we're doing this for, after all! Us control freaks just have to learn to let go :(

It does seem easier. Don't want them killed early, do we?

Read Widow's Tale? Looks to me like he's already involved, helping defend supply routes.
Enostar is in Pavis, and I can't see him leaving it at this stage.
White Bull is in Prax. Again, no reason to come over here.
