Luke-Allies — Luke Skywalker went into exile after the Second Galactic Civil War.

"I had thought you had taken the exile's path, wandering the galaxy."

―Atris to the Jedi Exile.^[src]

Exile was a form of punishment used by numerous cultures and sentient species across the galaxy in which the punished were banished from the society issuing the punishment, rarely ever to return. This form of punishment was known to be practiced by the Jedi Order against members who went against the will of the Order or turned to the dark side. Not all cases of exile were a form of punishment, as any being could place themselves in a self-imposed exile for a wrong they perceived they had done, removing themselves from society to keep them from wronging another again, or for failing a task they had believed they should have accomplished.

Examples of exile

Meetra Surik was exiled from the Jedi Order after her involvement in the Mandalorian Wars and returning changed, a change that the Jedi High Council of that time feared.^[1]
Yoda went into self-imposed exile on Dagobah after failing to defeat Darth Sidious after the execution of Order 66.^[2]
During his reign as King of Onderon, Freedon Nadd exiled anyone who opposed his rule.
Ithila, a Hapan woman, went into self-imposed exile after being scarred horribly during the Yuuzhan Vong War, ruining her beauty as she was allergic to bacta.
The Exiles were the last twelve survivors of the Legions of Lettow, the group of Jedi who had turned to the dark side and initiated the Hundred-Year Darkness, and were banished from Republic space after the Battle of Corbos. Their exile would see them discovering the planet of Korriban and the Sith species, setting in motion the creation the Sith Order.
Jedi Master Kreia was exiled from the Jedi Order for her training of Revan and his fall to the dark side. She would later be exiled and stripped of her power by her Sith apprentices Darth Sion and Darth Nihilus, leading Nihilus to take up the mantle of Dark Lord of the Sith.^[1]

Jolee Bindo chose to exile himself from the Jedi Order when he felt they failed him by forgiving him for his self-appointed training of his wife, Nayama Bindo, who fell to the dark side during Exar Kun's war against the Jedi. He believed that he deserved punishment instead of the promotion to Jedi Knight that the order gave him.
Allya, a female Jedi, was exiled to Dathomir in 600 BBY by the Jedi Order.
Obi-Wan Kenobi went into exile after failing to stop Darth Vader in 19 BBY.
