Can I trigger Corrupted Midwife
(Revelations F51) to play a character
from my discard pile outside of the
operations phase?

No. Corrupted Midwife reads, “Action:
Exhaust Corrupted Midwife to choose
1 character in your discard pile. Play
that character as if it were in your hand
as your next action.” Because you
cannot play characters from your hand
at anytime other than your operations
phase, her ability does not get around
this rule.

Do you still have to pay its cost? To play the card?

Yes.  Midwife just lets you play the card from a different location, you still have to pay the cost, have a faction match on the domain, meet any Steadfast or Loyal requirements, etc...  Everything is just like normal except the card can  be played from discard instead of hand.
