C&C Death Toll! Because I am morbid
Katurian's tears got me wondering: it has now been over three years since the Porter was activated, and that time has not been a lot of fun for a lot of people in the Cityverse. Reality-warping, being trapped in their worst nightmares, supervillain murders, cities being destroyed, wars over Porter technology- the people of this Earth have had to put up with a lot.
How many NPC lives have been ruined by Import-related shenanigans? How many have your characters negatively impacted somehow?
The focus here is on innocents more than jailed criminals. I'm curious to see if we can get a rough estimate by just throwing in examples of game events and character impacts on the hapless NPCs around them. Example:
-The game started shortly after the (still unexplained?) disappearance of the original police force, half of which later came back zombified. That's maybe thirty thousand gone right there.
-Jack Bauer has killed 41 people during his time in the Cityverse, but four of those occupy a grey area due to being undead, and one of them was an Import who came back. Also they've all been bad guys!
-The Major caused 114 deaths in Operation Gotterdammerung, and has gotten well over a hundred of his own minions killed in his various schemes. The raid on the HIVE caused a large amount of death and destruction, and the people he has turned into vampires are technically dead as well. The watchman killed in the blood bank raid is on his head also.
This is not a meme or an effort to establish firm game canon, just a bit of curiosity seeking to quantify Katurian's sorrow. Answer as much or as little as you like, and let's see what we come up with!

Saitou did indirectly die from Cavil's torture, granted - Kiryu mercy killed him like a champion. :c
