Wow...look what I just found! Researcher Scott Beattie brings us this paper:
"Rules may seem restrictive, merely negative exercises of coercive power. Nevertheless rules also have a strong constitutive role-in shaping fields of practice, defining roles and enabling agency. This paper explores the theory of different rule-playing 'stances' emerging from the theory of role playing games and asks if this might also have juridic or regulatory application. As context, this paper looks to the role playing game 'Wraith: The Oblivion', particularly for its unique use of roles to shape identity through the 'shadow' persona. © 2007 Association for the Study of Law, Culture and the Humanities."
Haven't read it yet, but I plan to.
