Most likely D.

A Most of the characters are based on real people or are real people sent to hell

B no

C I thought it was around Satan himself, trapped in the ice in the innermost circle?

D This makes the most sense

The different rings in Dante’s Inferno showcase the worst sins as you get to the inner rings (though honestly I feel some of the punishments in some of the outer rings are worst than some in the inner rings)

Hope this helped!
