Mehrukenah is a fictional character in Chris Heimerdinger's Tennis Shoes series. He is a Gadianton assassin who comes to the present day in search of the sword of Coriantumr.

Mehrukenah is first met in the original installment of the Tennis Shoes series, when Jim and Garth follow him to a secret meeting of conspiring kingsmen. This link is later referred to in the second book when Mehrukenah threatens to kill Renae Finamore (later Hawkins) with the same blade he was given at the kingsmen meeting.

Mehrukenah is said to be a very skilled assassin. He is Gadianton's personal assassin, after Kishkumen's death. It is said that he has no enemies, as he has killed them all. Despite his old age, he is still very leathal, in fact, "a viper would not bite him, for fear that his venom would be worse than its own."

Mekrukenah finally is defeated by Jim Hawkins in modern day Mexico, near Santiago Tuxtla.
