Real-valued triplet of scalar fields as source gives rise to a metric which tilts the scalar, not the light cone, in 2+1-dimensions. The topological metric is static, regular and it is characterized by an integer $\kappa =\pm 1,\pm 2,...$. The problem is formulated as a harmonic map of Riemannian manifolds in which the integer $\kappa $ equals to the degree of the map.
