What was the effect it had on Luther of being a heretic and outlaw?

Very limited. He had known before travelling to the Diet of Worms that this might well be the outcome of the proceedings, and accepted that risk. And immediately afterwards, Frederick III of Saxony had him spirited away to Wartburg Castle in Eisenach, where under his protection Luther could safely and in comfort continue his work. After a year he returned to his original home of Wittenberg where he lived on undisturbed as a respected theologican.
