Apr 20, 2022 at 8:29 comment added YCor Comment on connectedness (I first thought you forgot to assume connectedness): if the graph is not connected, then using a fixed-point-free permutation of the set of components, there's a fixed-point-free automorphism. So a graph answering the question has to be connected.
Apr 19, 2022 at 22:23 comment added YCor yes, sorry: "every conjugacy class of $G$ meets $C$" (actually in a singleton)
Apr 19, 2022 at 20:52 comment added Sam Hopkins @YCor: presumably that's a typo for "... every conjugacy class of $G$ meets $C$"?
Apr 19, 2022 at 20:46 comment added YCor Ivanov (see math.stackexchange.com/a/2147305/35400) constructed f.g. groups $G$ of prime exponent $p$ (for some prime $p$) with a cyclic subgroup $C$ of order $p$ such that every conjugacy class of $G$ meets $G$. Choose a Cayley-Abels graph $X$ for $G/C$. Then every element of $G$ fixes a point in $X$. So this would work, provided the automorphism group of $X$ is reduced to $G$. I'd guess it's possible to ensure this.
