hmm, this is a good question. Honestly if i had to guess i would say it was chara. There isn't any real proof that chara possessed the others and chara's soul was also red (it could even be that frisks soul wasn't initially red, but changed after the possession). However, given the asgore quote every time you die and his words telling you to stay determined i think atleast until the fight with hyperdeath frisk was relying on chara's drive to keep him going. After all, while frisk was determined to save his friends before that point he hadn't shown nearly the determination that chara showed in killing himself to collect the last soul freeing the monsters and it likely would have worked if asriel didn't "betray" his trust.
