Ran And The Gray World

Ran Uruma is precocious and lively in the way that most children are. The only difference is that she has magical powers. Being the daughter of a sorceress, Ran is able to affect her environment, lifting objects and tossing herself out of bed while she's asleep and transforming into a much older version of herself when she puts on her favorite shoes. Her erratic, impulsive behavior in tandem with her powers causes constant headaches for her family, especially her older brother, who has to clean up after his sister's messes, rescuing her from danger and making sure she doesn't go too far. Top it off with the fact that their mother is perpetually absent, having to protect her village from dark forces, and the Uruma household is always set to explode in the wake of one of Ran's temper tantrums or flights of fancy. But they adapt and survive. After all, even with Ran's out-of-control powers, they're still a family.
