Hermit

A hermit was any individual that retired from society and lived in a simple way apart from others. The habitation of a hermit was called a hermitage. Some hermits were hiding from the law, as was the case with Fegred Ewd. For a brief time in 14 ABY, Luke Skywalker came to think that heremitism was a compulsory passage in the life of a Jedi lest he or she would be tempted to seek power over others.
