Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A character archetype is kind of like a really general or even generic character that represents a specific trait, behavior, or moral, etc. A and C are too specific - they really only fit one specific person. The last one simply isn't a character - or at least it's too abstract to represent a specific trait in a person. However, B is a personality that can be applied to many people and characters alike.

Hope that helps, lmk if it was wrong
