North can't help it; he just naturally tends to see the other people around him as his charges when it comes time to evacuate to a safer area nearby. He's like a mother hen counting his chicks—he hangs back a bit, allowing his superior height to allow him to watch everyone in the vicinity as they move, using his rifle's scope to do a quick job of spotting the region ahead, and occasionally doing a head count. Everyone's here, everyone's safe, as long as he's doing the work he's put himself in charge of.
It's hard to distract his attention from this, but now and then he sees someone lagging a bit and draws up to their side. "How you feeling?" he asks, gently and congenially.
Other times he starts moving faster, doing a circuit around the group as it's in motion; the various people who have come to comprise the middle and vanguard of the company may notice that he randomly appears, seems to appraise the group, and allows himself to fall back again. He will nod at someone in these groups if they catch his eye, and might even ask how things look up there, but for the most part he tries not to waste time getting back to the back.
SCENARIO F: WILD CARD
It's nightfall, and North knows not everyone has the advantage he does, wearing his heavy armor. It's inevitable that they need to either press on despite exhaustion, or find or create some kind of shelter. North can push himself, but not everyone in the company is capable of such. So he takes the time, each evening, to move ahead and scout out a good place to camp. Once he finds the place, he heads back and alerts everyone in the group. "There's a flat area in between the trees to the northwest," he might say. "We can use branches to build a shelter."
It's inevitable, as the days go by, for someone to get upset with his attempts to take charge. When that person gets in his face, he draws himself up to his full height, which in his armor is quite formidable, and yells right back. "Do you have experience leading a group like this to safety? Because I wouldn't have made myself a leader if I didn't."
