In the Star Trek universe, Mogh was a Klingon, and considered for many years to be the traitor who allowed the Romulans to attack and destroy Khitomer.
Mogh named his first son after his father, Colonel Worf, who defended James T. Kirk and Leonard McCoy at their trial for the assassination of Chancellor Gorkon. Mogh named his second son Kurn.
Mogh relocated his family to Khitomer in 2346. Mogh, his wife, and 4,000 other Klingon civilians were killed in the attack; only Worf and his nanny, Khalest, survived, while Kurn was off-planet. In truth, the treacherous Ja'rod, of the House of Duras, gave the Romulans the code for Khitomer's planetary shield, and placed the blame on Mogh. For over two decades, the House of Mogh was looked down upon in Klingon society, until Worf aided Gowron in his bid for Chancellor of the High Council in exchange for restoring his house's honour.
