Gol Goroth means Forgotten Old One. This kinda makes sense cuz he is contained in a cellar below the rest of the raid. In myth he is also referred to as the God of the Black Stone, referring to he death crystal behind him.
Also in myth and legend he is known for having small pest that attack enemies and protect their master. This probably refers to the cursed total cuz those bitches kamikaze you during the fight.
In the myths he appears as a huge ass toad with a "malevolent glare" and tentacles protruding from his back. This relates to the arms on his back in the game and his weak spot, which causes him to "gaze" at you.
Edit: wow you guys are liking this. Bump so other can see!!
Edit: I'm getting different names for whoever made all this my this so I will just say that all credit goes to whoever created these myths

You don't even need to read the grimore to know about him. Bungee literally stole him from Lovecroth, a author. Word for word they stole him. Lovecroth's description:[quote]A giant toad like creature, with a malovent gaze. Guards a big black tablet of death[/quote][spoiler]Description is not word for word, but just google him and look at wikipedia's page on "Old Forgotten Ones". [/spoiler]

He may be in a cellar but he's hardly forgettable. It's a linear path. A portal opened up leading straight to him. Warpriest probably walks by him everyday on his way to work.
