Answer:

C. The lone gunslinger with a mysterious past.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Western stories, lone gunfighters are rather prevalent. This persona is typically an excellent marksman with a troubled past and a penchant for solitude. They are nomads, rarely staying in one spot for more than a short while at a time. An outsider who doesn't look for trouble but is always ready to defend himself and others when it happens.

The lone gunslinger, the babysitter with a hidden ability, and the accountant who is secretly a wonderful artist are all instances of archetypes. There are different types of archetypes.
