Vamp/Werewolf sires as mini-companions

As a random thought, what if you could sire killable npcs as a demo version of a companion?
For example, as a vampire you can kill by feeding on npcs. After doing this there could be a synergy at their body called 'sire' which raises them as a new vampire as your companion. They won't have any menu and can't be customized or changed in any way. They fight with the simple bloodfiend attacks and claws, also gaining the vampire look. They can at least be revived by a player, and permanently disappear when unsummoned or when summoning a true companion.
Werewolves would almost be the same, just feeding on a body and then using the 'sire' synergy. They keep their normal look out of combat but transform into a werewolf when in battle. No customization like before.
This wouldn't even replace companions either and would just mostly be an rp gimmick due to them being weaker than a true companion and not being permanent. They could travel zones with you but dissapear on log.
Both vampires and werewolves have been known to sire and infect others with both also having cases where they control the sired. Would be a cool way to add flavor and immersion to both without even buffing them at all. Think of the gimmick baby wasp that's just there for flavor. It also would be easy to implement as well.
Thoughts?
