The answer is B: dramatic action between characters.

Aristotle credits Aeschylus with having introduced a second character on stage, or deuteragonist. This allowed for a dramatic effect since this second character, depending on the play, could switch between supporting or opposing the main character (or protagonist). The deuteragonist would be assigned his or her own plot line, which greatly increased the dramatic possibilities of theater.
