______________________________________________________________________________The Neville Companye; a medieval reenactment group based in Gardiner, Maine portrays a military unit of Sir Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick, during the War of the Roses (1377-1485).
The group is open to anyone who is willing and serious enough to put in the time and effort to creating a period persona. In the Neville’s you portray a knight, man of arms, camp follower, craftsperson etc. who could have actually existed during that time period and who could have served in the Neville retinue. This character can and often is, created from scratch. However, a bit of research is involved.
