sort of. Her introduction was in an 'epic' where parvati was fighting this demon guy. Any time she wounded him, his blood would form new soldiers where it landed on the earth which would swarm parvati giving the demon time to sit back and heal. Sort of like dragons teeth from greek mythos. Kali's appearance was odd and depending on the translation she either came onto the scene or was born from Parvati's dark emotions like an asura. Regardless, she licked up the blood before it could become soldiers and in this way gained divinity. She is regarded as the dark side of parvati and her divine act was to stop the creation of life, an oposition to parvati's creation of life as the goddess of motherhood.
