==Biography==
Golgoroth was the creation of the traitorous [[Worm]] god [[Xol]] with the purpose of devouring [[Oryx, the Taken King]] and his family. It contained a heart filled with and strengthened by burrowing parasites related to the [[Worm]] Gods and was committed to Oryx’s service<ref name="bungie">[https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/article/twid-05-02-2024 THIS WEEK IN DESTINY – 05/02/2024]</ref>.However, Oryx discovered the plot and had [[Eir]] decree a new shape for the Ogre as a testament to the Final Shape, with Oryx giving him the name Golgoroth, becoming one of the most powerful [[Hive]] champions in the King's [[Court of Oryx|court]]. Later when Oryx carved the [[Tablets of Ruin]] out of flesh from the fallen [[Akka]], he sets one of them in Golgoroth as a rebuttal of Crota's demands to claim it, and from where the tablet was placed new flesh grew. The Ogre thus became a containment for a Tablet of Ruin and a vessel to both tithe violence directly to Oryx and corrupt hordes of stolen Light from Oryx’s conquests.<ref name=bungie/> The team of Guardians that killed Golgorath during the [[King's Fall|Raid]] to destroy Oryx recovered the Tablet of Ruin from his remains and the item has been vaulted for proper containment.<ref name=bungie/>
