(2.24) Multiple Effects
If a card has multiple effects, all effects
on the card are resolved, if possible,
independently of whether any other
effects of the card are successful
(following targeting restrictions as
normal), with the following important
exception:
If a card uses the word “then,” then the
preceding effect must have been resolved
successfully before the subsequent
dependent effect can be resolved.
For example, Darrin controls Forest Sister
(Core Set F125) which reads, “Disrupt:
Pay 1 to cancel a wound to Forest Sister.”
His opponent, Tommy, plays Sacrificial
Offerings (Core Set F59) which reads,
“Action: Choose and wound a character
controlled by an opponent. Then, that
character’s controller may choose and
wound a character.” choosing Forest Sister
to be wounded.
Darrin chooses to use Forest Sister’s
disrupt action to prevent the wound.
Since the wound was canceled, Darrin
may not choose and wound a character.

why would you use this card when it would mean one of your characters wound be killed also?

There are typically 3 situations. 1. You have no characters. Thus avoiding the second half of the effect. 2. Your target is vastly more valuable than anything you have in play. Often preceeding your important character. 3. You can or want to take the hit. A deck full of toughness based characters will make this card feel right at home.

ah ok I see, if I have a +1 toughness they can take the hit but the oppo would be removed?
