Captain Goroth was a Klingon soldier in the mid-22nd century.

In 2153, Goroth struck an agreement with the Tellarite bounty hunter Skalaar, wherein Goroth would pay nine thousand darseks for the apprehension of Starfleet captain Jonathan Archer, who was considered a fugitive in the Klingon Empire. Skalaar, who was attempting to collect a bounty with which to reclaim a vessel which had been impounded by the Klingons, experienced a change of heart when he discovered that it had been completely cannibalized. This, along with the fact that Goroth refused to honor their original agreement, paying Skalaar six thousand darseks instead of the promised nine thousand, spurred Skalaar to provide Archer with a lock pick with which to remove his manacles, and instructions as to how to escape from Goroth's ship in a Klingon escape pod. As Goroth ordered a pursuit course of the pod, his ship came under attack from Archer's vessel, Enterprise NX-01, which successfully disabled Goroth's ship and rescued Archer. (ENT: "Bounty")

Goroth was played by actor Michael Garvey whose costume was later sold off on the It's A Wrap! sale and auction on eBay. [1].
In the final draft script of "Bounty", Goroth was described as having a "gruff" voice.
