Is there a reason that these planes came with the model when I imported it? And despite having png files named the same as the mdx model, the texture is never imported. I'm using Blender 2.83.

These are various kinds of bilboarding effects attached to a model. The one behind back of your character is portait background. The ones below her are hero glow. The ones around her right arm are probably glows that some modellers attach to weapons... Or some fancy magic effects. Most of them are probably various forms of bearing team color.

Tl;dr - they are not bugs. They are features of the model.
