Well, I can answer the last question.
Hellforge
Normal: El-Amn
NM: Sol-Um
Hell: Hel-Gul
The Hellforge drops with uniform distribution within these ranges (including the end points)
Countess
Normal: Ral, Nef
Nightmare: Io, Ko
Hell: Ist, Lo
The Countess drops up to the first rune listed from her rune drop (ie, often) and up tot he second listed from her item drop (ie hardly ever). Yes, in normal the item drop is below the rune drop. The Countess can drop Els on all difficulties. The distribution for her drops is the same as for any monster that can drop runes of that level. All rune sources besides the Hellforge ultimately use the same TC heirarchy.
