Depending on how "OG D&Desque" you want to go...

OG D&D Elven immunity to ghoul paralysis was because elves were 'immune to death effects*' and the ghoul's paralysis was a death/fear effect.


* I think somewhere along the way this morphed to "elves are positive energy and ghouls are negative energy, so elves are immune to ghoul paralysis, but not ghast (poison) paralysis". And I think it was "death-fear effects', not straight out 'death effects'.

And I found this in DF9:
Resistant to Supernatural Abilities of the Undead (+3) or (+8) (PM, -10%) [3 or 5].
So ironically, this Advantage has more inline with OG D&D elven immunity to ghoul paralysis than anything else.
