Disturb
Disturb is an ability found on the front face of some double-faced cards (see rule 712, “Double-Faced Cards”). “Disturb [cost]” means “You may cast this card transformed from your graveyard by paying [cost] rather than its mana cost.” See rule 712.8c.
A resolving double-faced spell that was cast using its disturb ability enters the battlefield with its back face up.
Rulings
If you choose the second mode, you’ll lose life equal to the creature’s toughness when it was last on the battlefield.
If you choose the first mode, any Aura controlled by another player attached to the creature will be put into its owner’s graveyard as a state-based action after the creature leaves the battlefield.
Orzhov Charm’s first mode doesn’t target any of the Auras attached to the target creature.
For each of the modes, if the target creature or creature card is an illegal target when Orzhov Charm tries to resolve, it won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen.
If you choose the second mode, and Orzhov Charm resolves but the creature isn’t destroyed (perhaps because it has indestructible or it regenerates), you’ll still lose life equal to the creature’s toughness.
