This Gothmog is referred to as a "lieutenant" or second in command Nazgul
and was
sent by Sauron to reoccupy Dol Guldur in the intervening years after Sauron
( in his guise
as the Necromancer) allowed himself to be driven out by the white council;

I don't remember where I read this but will try to find the source. If
anyone here knows
please refresh my memory.

Gothmog is referred to as "the lieutenant of Morgul" (RotK,V,6). It is
unclear whether or not Gothmog is a Nazgul. Some believe he is; some
believe he is not. There is no evidence either way.
I've always thought he was a fallen Newmenuorean (Apologies for SP now - as I haven't
got any of the books to hand) like the Mouth of Sauron - Don't know why, it just made
sense to me.

Was he a balrog(with wings and all)?
