The portals she makes probably don't have anything to do with her sword, and it's unknown if it's Semblance or magic. The only thing special about her sword seems to just be that the blade is made with Dust, and she can switch it out for other Dust blades in its sheath.

Also, fans kind of argue about whether or not the spiky stuff in her hair is feathers, which would possibly make her a bird Faunus. If she is a bird Faunus, the explanation for why Qrow doesn't seem to have any Faunus traits is that they're fraternal twins, so the egg/sperm pair that made Qrow didn't have the right genes to manifest a Faunus trait, while the egg/sperm pair that made Raven did.
