Not that it really matters because the first goal is to have fun, but I'm pretty sure tieflings can't have human parents (without a pact with a devil). The suspicion and mistrust of tieflings come from a pact their ancestors made that changed them. This doesn't make the descendents evil though, nor do they themselves have any connection to devils, which is why the hatred is misplaced. They are just normal people with ancestors who consorted with devils.
It does happen though, and that's exactly what happened to Doric in Honor Among Thieves.
