Qrow's semblence, I'm not sure of, but Raven's..

I'm pretty sure Raven's semblence is the portals, we don't know how she might be able to use these (which could be things like transporting an attack like throwing knives or arrows at the opponent because it would go into the portal, or just teleporting, or transporting people places, etc, there are no limits in RWBY, well there is, but..), and..

The raven outside of Yang's window is possibly there to watch over her, watch her daughter's life..

The reason why I'd say she has a "different way of looking at the world" would be something depressing or something that worries her so much she looks at the world in the a way that you can't trust anyone or..

She's "dangerous" because she's powerful or something, or because Qrow doesn't know how she'd act around Yang..

As for the transforming into a bird thing, I think it's possibly a legend, which is why Qrow's trusted with other legends. That or like how the Schnee(s)  can summon fallen enemies. Either way, Qrow and Raven have this 'gift', it makes sense for both of them afterall.
