;AD&D : '''Advanced Dungeons & Dragons''' - the "advanced" version of the game, a distinct line from the various "basic" versions of the first two editions. See also [[Editions of Dungeons and Dragons]].
;A-shaped class : (4E) also "A class" or "A-class"; a class for which all builds share the same primary ability score, but have differing secondary ability scores. The Wizard is a good example: Intelligence is always primary, but Charisma, Constitution or Wisdom could be a good secondary score depending on what kind of spells you want to cast.
;AWED : '''At-Will, Encounter, Daily''' (4E) - short hand for the basic division of power usage in "standard" 4E classes.
